Chapter 238: That was a bad idea!

"That's a... that's a...!" Neville pointed at the masked man with terror in his eyes.

"Expelliarmus!" A flash of light came out of Lyra's wand and blasted the wand away from the masked individual's hand.

"Bloody hell, that hurt!" He let out a shout of complaint.

Two more masked persons came out of their hidden spots.

"You idiot, pay more attention!" one of them said.

"Neville, come on, run!" Lyra took Neville by the cuff of his robes and pulled him along.

The three masked men were blocking the only way out, so they had no choice but to venture further into the maze.

"Hurry you idiots!, we can't let the Boy Who Lived escape!"

"Yes, the Dark Lord will kill us if we fail."

Neville huffed and puffed as they ran. "Those are Death Eaters!" he finally said.

"I know!" Lyra looked around. Everything looked the same, so she had no idea where to go from here.

"You disarmed one of them. That was incredible!" Neville said in between breaths.

"That was nothing... Daphne would have thrown like three more spells and completely disabled him..." As much as she would like to brag, she knew her brother would tell her that she could have done better.

"Lyra... where are we going?" Neville decided to ask as they were just going further and further into the maze.

"To the center. Maybe there is another way out from there," Lyra hoped.

The trio of Death Eaters started laughing.

"Go ahead, do your worst." One of them got in front of the group and taunted Neville.

The boy trembled. He wasn't even sure what spell he could use in this situation.

"Neville, just run away, you cant beat them!" Lyra told him.

"No..." Neville pointed his wand at the masked man. There was one spell that Professor Potter had taught them during this last trimester, but he had been unable to use it successfully so far. "Stupefy!" A bright red light came out of Neville's wand and flew directly at the Death Eater.

Neville's eyes widened, both shocked and happy at his accomplishment.

This sensation went away quickly when he saw the masked man flick his stunner away like it was some sort of insect.

"What a disappointment... I was expecting something better than a stunner from the Boy Who Lived..." the Death Eater said.

"Just kill him already. There is no need to waste time."

"What about the girl? She is not one of the targets."

"We kill her too, I guess. I doubt the Dark Lord will care."

"I suppose... we better do this thoroughly."

Lyra and Neville were horrified to hear their conversation as they casually decided to kill them. She opted to do the one thing she could do at this moment... she screamed as loud as she could.

"Shut her up!"

"Silencio!" One of them cast a silencing charm at her.

"Just kill them already, we have to leave befo—"

"Found them." The voice of Astoria could be heard on the other side of the maze wall.

"Over here!" Ginny shouted.

"See? I told you that if we follow the wrackspurts, we will find them. Lyra is always surrounded by them," Luna explained.
